<p>I'm a junior right now and I'm searching for colleges. I noticed that some colleges need at least 2 recommendations, Lets say I am applying for 2 schools that require at least 2 recommendations. Do I ask both of my teachers to write 2 of the same? Or what.... Or 4 different teachers? How does it work?</p>
<p>Most schools ask for 1 or 2 recommendations. So you'll need to ask two teachers, but those teachers can then write recommendations for each college.</p>
<p>e.g. If you're applying to Colleges X and Y and you ask teachers A and B:
X: letters from A and B
Y: letters from A and B</p>
<p>If the schools are Common App, your teachers will just make photocopies.</p>
<p>They write the same letter for all the colleges you're applying to but change it to reflect the name of the individual college. and they have to check the boxes in the reco form but that doesn't take much time.</p>
